Shan Hun Cheng Chong Shou Fu Da Lao Ai Shang Wo (2024)

Cute and Short Drama to watch when you just want to turn of your mind.

As there isn't a synopsis provided, I'll add it here before I get to my review:

The drama also know as The Richest Man Fell In Love With Me is about Su Ke Ke ((a delivery girl who lost her mother), who helps the richest man's grandfather, Grandpa Fu, by chance, and then is arranged to have a blind date with his grandson, the richest man, Fu Nancheng. In order to pay off her mother's medical debt, she accepts a dowry of 200,000 RMB to become Fu Nancheng's wife. Fu Nancheng is wary of Su Ke Ke and hides his true identity because the marriage is arranged by his grandfather. As they live together, their feelings for each other deepen, but Fu's wealthy background repeatedly becomes a source of misunderstanding, such as Fu's mother's visit, the group's banquet and the return of his childhood friend to his home country, which triggers a series of interesting misunderstandings and challenges.

Now onto the review. This is my first time doing it so excuse me if its not the best or most coordinated review.

This is a pretty good short drama, it is only about 2.5 hrs long in total, so you could consider it to be a movie and watch it in one go, or if you're tight on time, you could watch the episodes which are up to 2 minutes long whenever you have time.

As with a lot of these types of short dramas, especially the ones that are filmed vertically, the plot is quite simple. Poor girls marries a rich man due to circumstances but isn't aware her husband is rich. You get a mix of scenes, the quiet, cute and wholesome scenes of the two leads getting to know each other, and then the cliched bullying scenes where FL, Su Keke gets bullied by her co-workers and family for being poor and an orphan.

I very much loved the FL in this drama, it my first time seeing Xu Meng Yuan but I'll be checking out her other works. Meng Yuan did a great job as Su Keke. She's able to portray someone who is kindhearted, optimistic and while she's does get bullied she knows when to back down and when to fight back, she isn't completely a damsel in distress. I especially like her acting when she finds out Mr. Fu's true identity, you could tell how distraught she was, the way she was gasping for breaths while talking and crying made it feel realistic imo. The ML wasn't bad, there wasn't anything bad about his acting but nothing that really stood out to me. The moments between the two leads were super cute and wholesome.

The ML's grandpa and mother were also really great side characters. Both loving Su Keke and I loved how the FL's In-law weren't the cliched bully types but actually loved her. The mother in law was also really funny whenever she appeared!

The only bad thing about the drama are the "evil"/bully characters. Their characters and the acting was kinda overexaggerated, which is kinda cliche for this type of thing but I found it kinda annoying. It kind of dragged on in my opinion although when they got what they deserved it was quite satisfying.

Regarding the music, I don't particularly remember the music so I've given it a 5/10 as the midpoint value.

A Sweet, Cozy Romance Filled With Warmth and Genuine Chemistry

This drama was genuinely sweet. I loved the ML’s warm, soft personality—such a nice change from the typical cold, brooding CEO. His little moments, like jumping during the blackout, were hilarious.

Both leads did a great job. It’s rare to see such good acting in low-budget short dramas, but these two have real chemistry. The FL especially has a lot of potential. The ML, Grandpa, and Mr. Fu’s assistant were all so entertaining—they made the drama funny and enjoyable from start to finish.

The story is simple but cute. \The FL is strong and easy to root for. As with most vertical short dramas, there are some cliché bullying scenes, but the wholesome moments between the leads balance it out.

One thing I really appreciated was the lack of over-the-top kissing or forced intimate scenes. The drama feels warm, soft, and family-friendly—something you can even recommend to younger siblings. The shy expressions between the leads, especially when the ML admits his feelings, were adorable.

I also loved how everyone—his family, the secretary, even the so-called “driver”—tries to help maintain the lie about his identity. Usually these dramas don’t put much effort into that part, but here it added a fun touch.

Overall, it’s a cozy, light romance with sweet chemistry and plenty of heart. A very enjoyable watch.
